Who would you rather meet, a happy affectionate drunk or a stoner on a severe paranoia attack?
If you're going to compare the two use two extremes. I'm a stoner and it makes me facepalm when other stoners claim nothing is wrong with cannabis at all. Yes there is, denial isn't going to help. A new study shows If you smoke from a young age you lose on average 8 IQ points and shorten your attention span permanently, and about 10% of users bring forward metal conditions such as depression or schizophrenia because of the drug use. Weed isn't a miracle cure, but it's still damn safer than alcohol.
